:( yes, I'm afraid so. Contact the breeder you got them from ASAP. Liquid Calcium is great. Unfortunately this can not be reversed, but can be stopped. The bones will get stronger but will never be like a normal gecko.

Actually its not that bad and seems to be in the starting stages... At this point it is reversable especially that the geckos are so young... When the bones harden and they are a few grams larger, you would never know there was even an issue...

I had a hatchling born with MBD once... I do not even know how the thing got out of the egg... It could not use any of its legs and basically squirmed around like a worm... I put the hatchling in a bin with the bottom lightly dusted with calcium powder with D3... In 2 weeks time the gecko was running down crickets like it never had an issue...

A picture or video does not prove anything about how they were when they left here and to make claims without valid proof.


The other thread got locked and from what I understand the owner is taking the 2 to the Vet today to get an official verdict.

It seems that some take this the wrong way. The seller claimed it carved in stone that MBD was not the case but injuries during shipping.

Now there are posts that say it was not shipping and "carved in stone".....MBD.

Before everyone gets their hair ruffled again, don't you think the certified Vet report is what we all should see?:main_huh:

GeckoForums is not a place to resolve business issues. The place for that is the Board of Inquiry over at http://www.faunaclassifieds.com.

If the buyer or seller wishes to continue discussing this issue, I would appreciate it if they would do so over there. Thanks.

I think everyone is still stuck on the "business" issue. This thread is about......Is it or is it not that the 2 Leo's in the video have MBD.

So correct me if I am wrong. No certified Vet has made a professional hands on examination as the buyer said was going to happen today and that information now is not about the business transaction but rather a certified medical exam.

The geckos have received a veterinary examination and are expected to recover with minimal complications. I will lock this thread along with the other one, the matter has been resolved to the buyer's satisfaction and there is no need for further discussion.
